This painting was something I envisioned. I wanted to embody the majestic, gentle nature of these giant whales while also bringing some magic wonderment into it with gold ink. It reminds me of a twinkling night sky.
This painting came after The Magic Humpback. Something about the freedom of its breach makes me feel like its part of a mystical world where it can just exist, unencumbered by its surroundings.
You may not know but this is actually a very small 3″x3″ painting. The pink and purple sky of a gorgeous sunset in the mountains awaits the viewer. I haven’t decided whether or not to put this one for sale. I’m in love.

I created this and wanted to make it a wallpaper for my phone and thought, “Why not make it something everyone can use?” Feel free to download! Here’s what…

I thought it would eventually get better but it didn’t. Come…

The best place to start is to let you in to the very intimate details as I remember them. I wrote this the day after his birth so I could remember as much as possible. It’s funny reading this again today and realizing how much I’d forgotten. Reading it almost brought me to tears again, seeing it from this side…

“Begin With The End In Mind”
“Begin with the end in mind,” they say. It’s been ten years since I sat in my living room in our home up north; Colby trying to nail in new baseboards and me with my feet propped up, laptop open, trying to come up with a name for what I decided would be my business. I fondly remember that cold…
